    I think it's one of them new fangled games. I heard it kills people when you play it and rots your soul.

    Newb serves no meaning anymore.
    You're a nub.

    Yeah, Deu? I used to make multiplayer maps with that thing. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
    That was fun as hell too. I made a map called "pearl" where the map physically looked like a string of pearls. It was a bunch of rooms connected to each other with windows looking into the middle. I had a bunch of neat little switches to kill people in rooms on the other side and stuff by squashing them. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    How does one go about acquiring a working port of Doom, as the game is so old that I don't think stores will sell it.

    OTOH i remember paying 60$ for all six episodes of wolf3d

    Marathon is awesome. Especially all the mods, like RED, Rubicon, Evil, and of course the sequels. Try using the mouse and keyboard and then beat it on total carnage or deathwish for RED. I can almost do it.... DAMN YOU DEATHWISH

    I don't know quite what world you're coming from, but here on earth DOOM2.WAD is 13MB (although still at the time the biggest game ever). It did come on CD yes, but its main form of distribution was on 5 3.5 high density floppies. I still have mine. In mint condition. In the original box. In mint condition. Along with Ultimate DOOM.

    :D

    ive build my own doom cd.. with a nice installer that installs all doom parts with jdoom port, the 3dmodels (strange..my doom runs much better with them) and the playstation final doom soundtrack bindet to the right maps.. yeah..this kicks.. the psx doom got such a nice fitting soundtrack for doom.. ive never liked the original midisoundtrack much

    I went and bought the collector's edition thingummy, since before that I didn't actually own a copy of Doom (I literally borrowed a spare copy a friend had. For some reason he had two - two actual boxes of the game with authentic disks in. Go figure <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> ). Doom, Doom II, Final Doom, Master Levels, and a bunch of god-awful homemade wads. And I made myself CDs of the game music <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->.

    I want to make a DOOM level that's just like the last one, where it just keeps spawning monsters... But 50 times as fast, with Cyber Demons spawning!

    Hell yeah!

    what strikes me as odd... is that at my college, we have a community "pod" free computers, you can install things, do whatever you want (excluding hardware touching/removal) and, it's free....

    drawback : no internet...



    so what has come to be installed on this machine?

    Half-Life
    Quake
    Starcraft
    Wolf 3D
    WinSlack
    Word XP
    and...
    <u><b>Doom</b></u>


    i played a LAN game of TFC today... aparently, they also updated to hl 1.1.1.0....

    GG 15 fps.... gotta love school computers.

    Come on lets set up a Doom Legacy coop server!
    <a href='http://legacy.newdoom.com/' target='_blank'>http://legacy.newdoom.com/</a>
    Lecacy is mainly a jDoom like port just with not as many features and you can get one of the best doom maps ever on it called Phobia (Try to find it i lost mine) but anyway that map pwns and ever lags a 1ghz machiene! (mine)

    I lost my Doom floppy disks also.... WAIT! I think I know where they are!
    When I get hom I am going to go find them!
    I want to get a ring like the one the guy had!

    Doom was the best Game for years, and years! I remember playing commander keen and thinking it was a **** rip-off of Doom!
    I didn't get back into FPS gaming until Quake came out!
